League of Women Voters of Snohomish County

Did you know you don't have to be a member of the LWVSC to join us in taking important and meaninful actions? The Natural Resources Committee is asking LWVSC Members and allies to contact Governor Inslee, Commissioner Franz and Secretary Millar as well as the Edmonds City Council to support an effort to restore the Edmonds Marsh. The committee was asked by the Sno-Isle Sierra Club and Save Our Marsh to support this on-going process to acquire access to vital waterways.

State property adjacent to the marsh is needed in order for streams to run free from a pipe and restore the link between the marsh and Puget Sound. Restoring this link is necessary for salmon spawning as well as the health of the marsh. WSDOT is acquiring the property and has not decided if they will allow it to be used for restoration of this estuary. We want to urge our Governor, Lands Commissioner, Secretary of Transportation and the Edmonds City Council to stand by their commitment to save salmon and orcas, and make this decision in favor of marsh recovery.

This request is based on the following League positions: the LWVUS supports policies that “reflect the interrelationships of water quality and quantity essential for maintaining species populations and diversity, including measures to protect lakes, estuaries, wetlands and in-stream flows.”

Please send your message in support. You might use all or part of the following, "As a member of the League of Women Voters of Snohomish County, I urge you to support restoration of the Edmonds Marsh and the adjacent critical salmon and bird habitat. The state property adjacent to the marsh is needed in order to prepare for streams to be daylighted and run free from a pipe. This will restore a precious tidal channel - the link between the marsh and Puget Sound. Restoring this link will provide necessary habitat for juvenile Chinook salmon migrating along the Puget Sound shoreline. In turn, increasing their abundance will feed starving orcas.

The time is now to promote the health of this marsh - one of the few urban saltwater remaining estuaries in Puget Sound and a critical flyway for over 90 migratory birds. Please allow this property to be used for restoration of this estuary.

Please support restoration of the Edmonds marsh and saltwater estuary."

The Herald wrote a great article highlighting our local League of Women Voters of Snohomish County and the history of the women's suffrage in Everett! The article also highlights our upcoming celebration of the LWV 99th Birthday and brings in a delightful amount of colorful well-researched history. We will be honoring local women mayors at our event, too. We are humbled by the outstanding women in history who struggled for the approval of the 19th Amendment, as well as the earliest founders of the LWV. Please enjoy the article and share it with your friends and organizations. ... See MoreSee Less

A time to remember: Local women helped secure the passage of the 19th Amendment nearly 100 years ago.
